Faline gets a lift from her mom, Saffron & Grey co-owner Abby.
It's no secret that we're a bunch of animal lovers. Most days, our shop dog Faline is on-hand to greet customers, take naps amidst the floral chaos, and generally keep spirits high. What's not as well-known however, is that she was a shelter dog before being lovingly adopted from the Animal Allies Humane Society. In fact, all of the Saffron & Grey team's animal companions were rescues of some form or another.
A day in the life of shop dog, Faline. Fun fact: Faline does NOT live at the shop full-time. She clocks out at the end of the business day and goes home with Abby.
Animal Allies Humane Society provides shelter and care to countless animals in the area. They are a lifeline to many will-be lifetime family members who don't have any other options. See the full story on their website.
An example of one of our weekly Animal Allies Monday ads.
Because animal rescue is a cause so near to our hearts, we created Animal Allies Monday to support its facilitation as much as possible. Here's how it works:
Every Monday, bring in any donation from the Animal Allies Humane Society wish list and receive any single flower from our cooler as a token of gratitude. It's that simple. Help local animals and brighten up your space with a flower - win/win!
Fun Fact: The word tulip is derived from a Persian word called delband, which means turban. It is generally believed that it was called this due to the turban-shaped nature of the flower. However, this might have been a translation error as it was fashionable to wear tulips on turbans at the time.
Each week, a fresh batch of these lovely perennials fly in from Holland - and boy, are their arms tired *ba-dum-tshh*.
Tulips are wonderfully easy to care for - no need to cut the stems, just ensure that any foliage below the water line is removed. Then, simply change the water as needed and voila - a long-lasting symbol of spring to be enjoyed everyday (at least until tulip season ends)!
Saffron and Grey's tulip season lasts through the end of April. Call us at 218-728-1455 to order a bright bunch or cheerful arrangement today!
